    Not rejecting anything or anybody, have an open mind. Try it some time.

    American property tycoon will move to buy Coventry if club slides into administration

    Any questioning of Sisu and Ranson(and their intentions) before was mostly verboten, shouted down in "Sisu saved us" and "Ranson's a football man and successful businessman" slogans from the majority. Some, like Ginetta, even went mad if you suggested that Sisu were a hedge fund! Just find it...

    American property tycoon will move to buy Coventry if club slides into administration

    Well, Mother Theresa was a bit of a c**t, so wouldn't wish her on us. Seems the same who slavishly loved Sisu with no questions at all for years are preparing to do the same with anybody else. Especially if it has the seal of quality that is Teflon Joe attached to it.

    Sky Blue Trust - Certainty of takeover

    Fan representation is a good idea, as long as it's that, and not a free PR campaign for any owners.

    American property tycoon will move to buy Coventry if club slides into administration

    They do, all new owners are brilliant and should never be questioned at all. Not that there is fuck all we can do to influence who takes over, but would hope that if we do get any new owners there will be a little more questioning and openness to dissent than there was last time. That should...

    American property tycoon will move to buy Coventry if club slides into administration

    They weren't stupid and didn't haven't people like "Born-again" Ginetta saying how stupid they were for not letting Ranson take them over.

    Why do our potential investors need to wait for admin to buy the Arena?

    Imagine that would be closer to the £113million build cost(an awful lot if paid for by the club before running out of money). How much did or does ACL pay CCC for the leasehold then?

    Why do our potential investors need to wait for admin to buy the Arena?

    Who actually owns the freehold and how much is that worth? Was it a 99 year lease at the start?

    Why do our potential investors need to wait for admin to buy the Arena?

    Didn't it cost £113 million to build? Do you seriously think it would be worth only £15million?

    Why do our potential investors need to wait for admin to buy the Arena?

    If that is the case, then wouldn't that option have a considerable value? Think it was to buy the half-share at £6million? How much is the Arena worth? £30-60million? Then that option could be worth upwards of £15million, would it need to be bought off Sisu as part of any administration?

    "The Sky Blue Trust is an independent, democratic, not for profit, supporters’ group which operates transparently and with membership open to all Sky Blues supporters." Good to see that the guiding principles of the Trust are being upheld, with no "nudge,nudge, wink, wink" style shenanigans...

    Did you ever "dance on the streets of Raith"?

    Sky Blue Trust - Certainty of takeover

    If Hoffman, Elliott or Ranson involved at all, then I'm out. Suspect they are, and the following definition of insanity would just about cover it: "Insanity is repeating the mistakes of the past and expecting different results".

    A serious question:

    Thinking about it, they've probably got enough for half an hour now with the £800 on the Jimmy Hill Statue. Being serious for a moment, who does the statue belong to? The club or ACL?
